I like Jon Rappoport. His web site '' is second to none. One day I will write this well! Enjoy, learn and live free. j

Foundation of Mass Mind Control My third collection, Power Outside The Matrix, contains a lengthy Writer's Tutorial.  Aside from practical advice, I stress what freedom means to a writer, what it really means in terms of available energy.


Let's start here: symbols have meanings because someone assigns those meanings.

Despite common belief, symbols aren't tagged with meanings in some cosmic way that precedes humans' presence on the scene.


This is the objective of all cosmology: "It's the way things are, get used to it, accept it, the universe is built in this fashion, there's nothing you can do about it, remain passive, don't rebel, comprehend what is given to you."


They say, "This symbol is evil, avoid it and reject it.  This symbol is good, praise it."

Humans will take it to the bank.  They'll go so far as to presume God decided which symbols stand for evil and which stand for good.  Naturally, they have an inside line on God's motives and intents.

Then we have those who argue that certain symbols have meaning created by a collaboration of "collective consciousness."  And this, they claim ("woo-woo"), is very, very powerful.

Yes, it's powerful if you don't reject it.  It's powerful if you believe that collective consciousness contains some sort of magic.  It doesn't.  It's just another version of consensus reality.  

Some people cling to the idea of the boogie man.  They swim in it.  They derive their moral stance from it.  They depend on it.  Without it, they wouldn't know what to do.  And that's exactly why they claim symbols of evil are inherent and forever and horrible: they wouldn't know what to do if they abandoned the notion.  They'd be lost.  Utterly lost.



What other people might think about all this is supremely irrelevant.


Mass mind control focuses on two elements: image and feeling.


Two seemingly unrelated events spurred my interest in mass mind control.




A few days later, I began making notes under the heading of "image-emotion cues."  At the time, I had just started working as a reporter, writing articles for LA Weekly.  I knew next to nothing about mind control, MKULTRA, Soviet psychiatric gulags, Chinese re-education programs, or US psychological warfare operations.


I remembered my first exhibition of paintings in LA, at my friend Hadidjah Lamas' house.  We had hung my work in her large living room and dining room.  Hadidjah had enlisted the services of a friend who had videotaped me painting in my studio, and at the exhibition she set up a television set out on her patio and continuously played the videocassette.  


They would stop at a painting and say: "That picture was in the video!"  " You see that one?  It was in his studio!"  

My first note on "image-emotion cues" was, "Investing an image with importance.  Projecting emotion into an image."


When people encounter an image, when they invest it with importance, they project feeling into the image---and this all happens in a private sphere, a private space.

If this didn't happen, there would be no way to control populations through images.  It wouldn't work.  It all starts with a person setting up his own personal feedback loop that travels from him to an image and back again.  

Coming out of World War 2, US psychological warfare operatives knew they could turn their skills to political purposes.  They had just succeeded in making Americans believe that all Japanese and German people were horribly evil.  They had been able to manipulate imagery successfully in that area.  Why couldn't they shape America's view of a whole planet that lay beyond personal experience?

They could and they did.  But the power to do that emanated from the fact that every person invests images with feeling.  That's where it really starts.

I had seen the 1957 film, Sweet Smell of Success, a number of times.  I admired it.  Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis gave tremendous performances.  When, decades later, I saw Curtis sitting in his car at that gas station, I was "working from" the emotion I had invested in his onscreen image.  It produced a sense of shock and paralysis for a few seconds.

Other people might have rushed up to Curtis and asked for his autograph.  With me, it was shock, cognitive dissonance.  Ditto for the death of FDR.  I was working off newspaper pictures I'd seen of him, and the feeling I'd invested in those presidential images.  Other people, when FDR died, went out into the street and hugged their neighbors and wept openly.  For me, it was upset and shock and anger.



We focus to such a degree on how we are being manipulated that we don't stop to consider how we are participating in the operation.  And our own role is clear and stark: we invest images with feeling.


Through external instruction or cues.    


Because they don't realize they started the whole ball rolling themselves.  All they know is: images are connected to feelings.

If they knew they were the real power in the whole operation, if they knew they were investing feelings into images all day long, if they could actually slow down enough to see how they do this....then they would be far less prone to taking instruction about what feelings they "ought to" invest in second-hand images.

Hypnotherapist Jack True unceremoniously put it to me this way: "If a dog could analyze how he got from eating meat to drooling at the sound of a bell that came at feeding time, he could stop drooling."


We see images of people rioting all over the Middle East.  We see burning flags and crowds outside embassies.  We're supposed to invest our own anger into those images.  Outrage.  Or joy, depending on the narrative the television networks are selling.

We see an image of miles of flat farmland and wheat waving in the breeze.  We're supposed to invest that image with feelings of happiness and pride.


Imagine a thought-experiment.  You're watching your computer screen.  It holds an image of a tall blue vase.  With purpose, you project the feeling of joy into the vase.  Then you project the feeling of disgust.  Then, fear.  Then, worry.  Then, pleasure...on purpose.





Well, I was cheating a little.  I wasn't really describing what I saw.  I was imagining.  I was taking off from what was on the page and improvising.  This was outside the bounds of the Test.


I wasn't playing his game.  Among other sins, I wasn't investing dumbed-down feelings in the images.  Therefore, my choices of "what to see" in the blots expanded greatly.

When I go to a museum, I like to watch people stand in front of abstract paintings.  Many of them are stumped.  They're trying to figure out what feelings they "are supposed to" project into the painting.  They're looking for "instruction," and there isn't any.  They're asking for mind control, and they're not getting it.


In the 2012 election season, people on the left were urged to project messianic feelings into images of Barack Obama.  People on the right were cued to invest feelings of pride, hope, and "tradition" into images of Mitt Romney.  On both sides, it was principally images that were presented.  The real candidates weren't actually experienced.

Since Vietnam, shooting wars have been more difficult to sustain among soldiers.  "In the old days," feelings of hatred could be projected into images of enemies that included civilians, so overtly killing everybody on foreign soil was easier to accept.  Now, soldiers are taught "enemy combatant" and "civilian" are two different images that require the injection of two different feelings.


The astonishing number of civilians who participate in government and corporate surveillance of the public, through technological means, learn to invest "dead empty feelings" into images of citizens, as if these targets are nothing more than ciphers, units.


In all these cases, there is no real experience.  It's all second-hand.  It's all feeling-projected-into-image.

In the medical arena, countless advertisements and news stories are geared to convince people to invest feelings of trust in images of doctors.  The suggestion, "Ask your doctor if X is right for you," is framed as the solution to a little problem.  The problem is set this way: Drug X is wonderful; drug X has serious adverse effects; what to do?  Solution: ask your doctor; trust him; he knows.

As the class of victims in society has grown by leaps and bounds, including any group that can organize and promote itself as needing help or justice---going miles beyond the people who really do need assistance---citizens have been trained to invest feelings of sympathy and concern for all images of victims everywhere, real or imagined.  This, too, is mass mind control.

Pick an image; invest feelings in it.  Facts don't matter.  Evidence doesn't matter.


You've heard people say, So-and-so celebrity has become a caricature of himself.  Well, that's what it means.  The person has projected massive feelings of approval into an image of himself---often an image shown on television.

As a society, we can go on this way until we become a horrific cartoon of ourselves  (we're already there), or we can step back and discover how we invest emotion into images, and then use that process to pour feeling into visions of our own choosing and invent better futures.

Since the dawn of time, leaders have portrayed themselves as gods.  They've assembled teams to promote that image, so their followers could project powerful emotion into the image and thereby cement the leaders' control and power.  

The game isn't new.  Understanding the roots of it within each individual could, however, break the trance of mass mind control.

During the first West Nile "outbreak" of 1999, I spoke with a student who had just dropped out of medical school.  He told me he'd been looking at electron-microscope photos of the West Nile Virus, and he suddenly realized he was "supposed to" invest feelings of fear in those images.  


Parents all over the world are having the same experience vis-a-vis vaccines.  They realize they're supposed to invest fear in images of germs and disease, and they're also supposed to invest feelings of hope and confidence in images of needles and vaccines.  They see the game.  They're supposed to ignore evidence that vaccines are dangerous and ineffective.  They're supposed to remain victims of mass mind control.

But they've awakened.



This, it is said, is inhuman.  It's a bad idea.  It's wrong.  It would lead us to "deserting the human community."

Nonsense.  That's part of the propaganda of mind control.  If the controllers can convince us that we're working from a limited map of emotions and we have to stay within that territory, they can manipulate that limited set of feelings and trap us.



The natural world---the world of what we can be---is so much wider and more thrilling and revealing.
